THE FARMYARD AND THE CHIP SHOP: An 11 year old Ileach from the Kildalton Coast bottled at 56.1% from a 2nd fill barrel.

Panel's Tasting Note: "This presented two distinct scenarios which had the panel scratching collective heads. Malt in burlap sacks, sillage, tomatoes and compost in one camp. Fish and chips, in paper, oyster shells and lobster pots in the other. Vanilla pods andapple chutney and some tropical fruits popped up. Then the Islay personality roared into action with coal buckets, Germolene and barbecue smoke. With water it reminded one of a cedar wood chest of blankets with mothballs and another of laundry day at the beach. A curious creamy mouth feel of peach yogurt left the panel scratching their heads to the last drop."

Drinking Tip: "While eating fish and chips on the pier."
